Teeny boxes!

Hello :)

As promised - here are some teeny boxes I made for Valentines gifts. Each box containes two heart shaped chocolates wrapped in pink and red foil. I am going to sell them at work, but my step-son has nabbed one already for his girlfriend! He has promised unlimited cups of tea for the next month as payment! We'll see!!

All six boxes together

 To give you an idea of how small they are I put one next to my cup of tea.

Rather cute aren't they??
(It actually measures 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 1")

I couldn't find a template or instructions anywhere on the 'net for a box this small, so I made it up myself. It took a couple of goes but in the end I was really pleased :))

I've had a very 'crafty' day today so I've plenty to post so please pop back and have a look during the week.

Thanks for looking

Mini Notecards and Box Set

Good evening,

I've got the bug now for making boxes so I made this one and some mini cards and envelopes to go in it.

I think it's rather cute but the pictures aren't that great!

A close up of one of the cards - they are 3" square

Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of the envelopes!

I'm going to have a go at making some really teeny boxes for valentines so I'll hopefully have them to show soon. Watch this space!!

Thanks for looking,

Card and a box

Evening bloggers!

I know I was going to try and post at least once a week, but my life doesn't always go to plan and I haven't had any time for crafting for a while :(((

Yesterday, however, I crafted all afternoon and well into the evening so I have a few things to show you all - but not all tonight!

I bought my friend Barbara a necklace and bracelet set for her birthday and decided to have a go at making a box for it. This is my first attempt at a box and I think it came out quite well (even if I do say so myself). Anyway, I made a co-ordinating card too and here they are:

All comments are greatly appreciated.

I got the bug slightly after this and made another box with some little cards so I'll post this later in the week.

Thanks for looking
